Top fixes

warnrobots.txt allows AI agentsDiscoverability

2 access agent(s) blocked: ChatGPT-User, PerplexityBot — these keep your site out of AI answers. 5 training-data crawler(s) blocked (GPTBot, ClaudeBot, anthropic-ai, Bytespider, cohere-ai) — a licensing choice, not scored.

Fix · WordPress: Use Yoast/Rank Math’s robots.txt editor (or a plugin) and ensure no Disallow for AI user-agents.

failLink response headersDiscoverability

No HTTP Link: response headers. Emit canonical/alternate/describedby relations so HEAD-only or stream-rendering agents get them without parsing HTML.

Fix: Emit `Link:` headers for canonical, alternate-language, and describedby relations. Agents that fetch HEAD-only or stream-render rely on these.

failText-to-markup ratioReadability

Visible text is 1.5% of HTML weight (5659/384454 bytes). Low. Markup may be crowding out agent-usable text.

Fix: Heavy ad or navigation markup crowds out agent-usable text. Aim for a text-to-DOM ratio above 15%.

warnContent without JavaScriptReadability

Browser pass unavailable; HTML looks like a JS-shell (e.g. #__next / #root). Likely JS-dependent.

Fix · WordPress: Most themes render server-side. Check that page builders (Elementor/Divi) aren’t deferring text to JavaScript, and disable JS lazy-loading for body copy.

warnCookie wall blocks contentReadability

Consent modal detected (cookielaw.org); content still visible. Verify the modal does not block first-paint for screenshot agents.

Fix: Defer cookie consent overlay until after content is visible, or render behind the primary content. Agents without JS or with ad-blocking profiles see a blank page otherwise.

failSchema type coverageStructured data

Page looks like Article|BlogPosting|NewsArticle; missing JSON-LD type(s): Article|BlogPosting|NewsArticle.

Fix: Align JSON-LD type to page purpose. Product pages without Product markup are skipped by agent shopping flows.

Does AI actually recommend aljazeera.com?

This scan shows whether an agent can read the site. One free probe asks a real assistant a real buying question and records who it cited.

This scan graded one page. Your site is more than one page.

This graded your homepage. Your pricing, docs, and checkout live on other pages — the ones assistants actually quote when they recommend you — and a 69/100 here means agents are already missing things on the page you polish most. The $29 Deep Scan audits the whole site against all 31 checks, then emails a PDF with every failing check and its exact fix, ranked by what costs you the most visibility. One-time, delivered in minutes, no subscription.

Track this score

Get this report by email, then a heads-up when aljazeera.com’s agent-readiness actually changes — a check regressing, or the composite dropping.

Two things never trigger an email: a score change caused by us publishing a new rubric, because that is a different instrument rather than a change to your site, and movement explained only by timing-derived checks, which shift run to run on a site nobody touched.

Want it on your own schedule, with Slack or a webhook instead of email? Score-drift monitoring is on every paid plan.

This score says whether an AI agent could read aljazeera.com. AI traffic analytics says whether one actually came — and which pages turned it away.
